Dr. Welsing was a race woman!

Dr. Francis Cress Welsing's legacy is striving to bring justice to a world rife with racism/white supremacy, of trying to understand the "why" of white domination and control so it can be eliminated through scientific approach and evaluation. She fought the stress of being black until age 80 when she succumbed to a stoke and was taken off life support by her family after a ritual asking deities to receive her from Earth.

All of these women are now deceased but had one thing in common - fighting racism and domination by white society.  This is not just a roll call but a call to action. How will you follow in their footsteps and learn from their legacies? Learn how they brought a message of problem identification and sought to bring justice to their people.

Do your research, and ACT!
